    Dr. Savage explains why paying reparations for slavery is not a good idea.


    How about the black people who came the US after slavery was abolished, should they also receive reparations? Obviously not.

    Who should pay reparations to whom? Should reparations be given to any black person, or to a black person who can trace his ancestry to actual slaves in the US?

    Should wealthy black people also receive payments?

    Should Chinese-Americans also pay reparations, whose ancestors immigrated to the US?

    Are only whites required to pay the reparations or all Americans?

    Deja vu. I'm sure I voted in another thread with this exact same title just this morning.
    Nine out of ten concerns are completely unfounded.

    I am for reparations, paid by Blacks, to the ancestors of white Union soldiers who were killed and maimed freeing the slaves. Most were poor and were drafted into service against their will. The wealthy were allowed to avoid service by paying the government $.
